It already did. :roll:
Man, I need to read more carefully from now on, when I sawa that "It already did" link I almost jumped at the thought there is a demo, when the link is connected I thought I had a heart attack. :evil:

oh well.

Must say I am impressed Egosoft have managed to turn X3 round so quickly from doing an X2 expansion pack into a whole newly developed engine with storylines etc.

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers Fehler "80040e21'

Der ODBC-Treiber unterstützt die angeforderten Eigenschaften nicht.

That's what I get after submitting payment to Paypal for the pre-order, and click on "Return To Merchant"...

Any translation available? (email sent to orders@egosoft.com already, just curious on what that error is... :)

But since you're in UK you could just transfer the money.

I did that without problems.

"Return to Merchant" didn't work for me either (page cannot be displayed or somesuch), but I got a mail 30 seconds later confirming the PayPal transaction so I'm not worried :-)

Scoob.

One of the things i'm really looking forward to is the soundtrack, It's not often I have music enabled within a game but if the previous ones are to go by we are in for another treat, Kudos to the composer.

Man I dont think i've been excited about a game since mutiplayer solitare was announced :D

great, now keep testing it so that the 1.1 patch is out by the time it hits the shops!

:wink:

kidding, great job guys, the proof of the pudding is in the eating but EGO have a reputation for making damm good pies. Looking forward to the 28th!
